The circular scale head of a screw gauge is divided into 200 divisions and move 1 mm ahead in one revolution. The diameter of the wire, when the pitch scale reading shows 6mm (when the wire is firmly held between the studes) and 45^(th) division on circular scale coincides with the reference line.

Two full turns of the circular scale of a screw gauge cover a distance of 1mm on its main scale. The total number of divisions on the circular scale is 50. Fuerther, it is found that the screw gauge has a zero error of -0.03 mm, while measuring the diameter of a thin wire , a student notes the main scale reading of 3 mm and the total no. of circular scale divisions in line with the main scale as 35. The diameter of the wire is
